Thanks for picking up the work on this great app!

I must admit, though, that I kind of liked the save icon. To me it wasn't just the save feature that was valuable to me but that when it was in saved mode it was un-editable and the content was locked in. It has happened in the past that I've selected a chunk of text when scrolling and accidentally pressed a key causing the text to get deleted. Having a 'view'-only option saved me from doing that.

Also, I don't have the NIT near me until later but I am a bit confused when you mention the ways to save notes;
- closing the applet,
- switching to another note, and
- when sending the applet to the background (e.g. by launching an application).

I don't, in my mind ever 'close an applet' or 'send it to the background'. It stays active on my screen all the time.
So if I enter some text in then want to just put it in my pocket - how exactly do I go about making sure it's saved?

Apart from that it looks great and I am excited to try it out and I am SO looking forward to the transparency setting later on as that is my personal big issue.

EDIT: Additional:
1) Does clicking the Right arrow always create a new note if there are no further notes (does it ask if you want to do that?). I don't want to risk accidentally creating a bunch of notes if clicking the right arrow.

2) It would be nice if it would show what note your are on.
Say for instance 3/5 in the corner meaning you are on the 3rd out of 5 notes.

3) Would it be possible to if you held the stylus pressed down on the menu bar (or in the note maybe) it would change the transparency to be non-transparent for easier reading in some situations. The prior version did that when you moved the note around on the screen.

Thanks again!
